Description

Ten-year-old Arthur travels to the land of the Minimoys, a tribe of tiny people less than one inch tall, in search of his missing grandfather and a stolen treasure. He joins forces with two Minimoy friends to save the Minimoys from destruction. The story continues as Arthur and his Minimoy companions journey to the forbidden city of Necropolis to battle the evil wizard Maltazard.

Quick Summary

Arthur shrinks down to the size of a thumb and discovers a hidden world of miniature people living in his own backyard, making this a dream come true for any kid who's ever imagined tiny worlds existing right under their nose. The story delivers giant-sized thrills as Arthur battles giant insects, outwits cunning enemies, and races against time to find his missing grandfather while protecting the Minimoys from destruction. If your kid loves the imaginative shrink-down adventures of "Stuart Little" or the magical quests of "The Chronicles of Narnia," they'll be absolutely enchanted by Arthur's journey into this microscopic kingdom. Perfect for kids in grades 4 through 6 who are ready for a longer read with a 6.3 reading level but want a story that feels like stepping into a magical fantasy film.
